“While in the Rising Above Program I learned a great deal of new ways to go about finding my ideal job situation. I learned how to prioritize my smart goals, make a viable plan to accomplish those goals, realized my ideal job objectives and learned how to write a proper cover letter, resume and JIST card. Maurice helped me find the missing tools that I needed and also instilled confidence in me to believe in myself to go out and get the job that I want and deserve.
I would like to thank Maurice Stevens and the Rising Above Program for giving me all this information to use as a stepping stone that will help me accomplish all my goals in life.”
Sincerely,
Colville Jones

I have learned to over exceed the limitations which are of the mind. There are no limits! I would not take back any day spent in this class! It was all worthwhile.”
Sincerely,
